any trick to bracing for a second floor (just worried about falling threw the floor) My wife informed me 2 mins avo that she wanted a balcony on our cabin or at least a good view.
I will probably put the bedrooms upstairs now.

You could consider a dormer upstairs. We did a shed dormer on the back and it is not hard to frame, not expensive, but adds a lot of space. We are doing a balcony off of that.
Have fun with your planning, I really enjoyed that stage, and welcome to the forum!
