Someone else may know more that I about this location, but there is an IHOP in Roswell.

10686 Alpharetta Hwy, Roswell, GA 30076

Removing the Blue Ridge location puts the meeting in downtown Atlanta. 

Maybe the Eastern-folk can stage a cruise-in near Athens or Greensboro?

Another consideration is distance.  Some may be willing to drive further than others.  For example, 20 minutes isn't a long drive for me, but other people seem to think that is far.

Speaking for the slacker in Augusta, we're talking a 6 hour round trip.  The meeting would have to be far closer for me to attend.

It's in the mix between Roopville and Augusta. 

I was hesitant in picking out the Duluth Diner because it's close to me, but it was something that was kind of an emergency thing.  I don't like the meetings close to me.  I like to drive the car. 

Somewhere up Roswell Road, outside the perimeter might be good, or even around the Perimeter Mall area, but that's likely to be busy and pricey. 
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

The issue for me is time between 8:40pm on Friday and meeting time, and then losing an hour on top of that.

I saw an IHOP on Roswell Rd.

While we're at it... Don't we have someone in Sharpsburg?  (Not Ralph's future home. Someone else. Or was that the "Newnan" resident?)

Jimmy is in Newnan. We are going to be doing a 3800sc on the 86 and swapping his 84 body over.

Wow. Mine is only a four hour round trip. Through Atlanta traffic. :D
Actually do-able. Sometimes.
COVID has been a deal-breaker, lately, but that's about to be a thing of the past. Hopefully. (Got my 2nd shot last Thursday.)

Jimminy!  A younger body would be great.
