[ale] ALE meeting location

[Jim Kinney]

As per wife's call :

Called Melton's. They  are doing Social Distancing seating. Full menu is available. They are keeping everything as germ free as possible. Plastic cutlery only. Menus and salt/pepper shakers sanitized between seatings. Tables wiped between sneezes and coughs.
