You were on the right path! And you added the hover after the initial "a". The problem is that the more specific tag, "nav a" is what is controlling the NAVigation links. Below is the answer. This will happen a lot when you are working with css, and finding the most specific css tags is an art.

a 
{
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

p
{
  color: #000;
}

h1 
{
  color: #ffffff;
}

h2
{
  color: #ffffff;
}

nav a
{
  color: #ffffff;
}
