Maggie,

You're close to having the correct solution, but you're currently missing some of the code that was provided to you at the beginning of the code challenge.

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;

namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(GetTreehouseHome());
        }

        public static string GetTreehouseHome()
        {
            string treehouse = "";
            // Put code here

            return treehouse;
        }
    }
}

Notice the public static string GetTreehouseHome() method in the above code? You need to make sure that your solution contains that same method.

Thanks ~James
