### 5/5 — Another Fun Pixton Puzzle

*2017-03-10, version 1.0*

I've enjoyed all of the Pixton puzzles, though I can't say I've managed to finish them all!  This set I might be able to complete, as finding the words sure helps connect the dots!  I'm running through this first on the easier settings and am pleased that I'll have the harder setting to try!

Please keep these puzzles coming!
