For some reason my style sheet does not seem to be working correctly with my html. Any ideas?
HTML <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Lake Tahoe</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href:"css/style.css"> </head> <body> <header> <span>Journey through the Sierra Nevada Mountains</span> <h1>Lake Tahoe, California</h1> </header> <p> Lake Tahoe is one of the most breathtaking attractions located in California. It's home to a number of ski resorts, summer outdoor recreation, and tourist attractions. Snow and skiing are a significant part of the area's reputation. </p> <a href="#">Find out more</a> </body> </html>
STYLE SHEET CSS
@import "import-styles.css";
body { text-align:center; }
h1 { font-size: 72px; color: white; }
header { background-color: orange; }
p { font-size: 20px; }

20,881 Pointsit looks like you have a colon instead of equal sign in your HTML file stylesheet link:
href:"css/style.css">
but it should be:
href="css/style.css">
On another note, your code would be easier to read if you formatted it when adding your question. There is a markdown cheatsheet under the text area field where you can check how to format your posts.

From what I can see, there is a tiny mistake with your code:
<link rel="stylesheet" href:"css/style.css">
Replace : with = sign after href so it should look like this
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css">
