A silly silly question
Grandpa and I went on a nice camping trip away from it all for hiking, fishing, hunting, camping, kayaking you name it.
After a rather adventurous yet successful day we were walking back to the tent when suddenly Grandpa giggled and said
" You know this just proves 1 = 2 doesn't it son?"
I looked at him and then it hit me. Silly but kind of right.
What was he holding?

To be pedantic, it should have been - "...just proves 1= 2 doesn't it grandson ?"...:-)

Is he holding...
A bird in his hand? Which equals 2 (you and your grandpa) in the bush, as the old adage goes.
