Hey princess, your lumberjack prefers camping and shooting targets to your expensive dinners and satin gloves, but still makes time to pull out your chair? Well, love is a two-way street, sister, so adjust your tiara and sign up for the "Introduction to the Great Outdoors - Diva Style" event at Cabela's, the world's foremost outfitter.

A "hands-on day of fun" for the fairer sex includes a picnic-style lunch and featured keynote speaker Debbie Ferns, the author of Babes With Bullets. Now you may be squeamish at the thought of a firearm in your tender grip, but on her Web site video, Ferns, who never picked up a piece until she was 45, says, "Going to the shooting range should be a fun adventure instead of a dreaded event for us gals." Now all you have to worry about is bears.
