Drop your kids off then drive to work like everybody else does. I'd scream my head off too if you unnecessarily dragged me on your commute everyday.
And kids don't stay little forever. There are three elementary schools that I can think of in the neighbourhood as well as a Junior High. In a couple of years when your kid is in school your home's proximity to the school will be one of the most important things in your life so I hope you have one close by.
Also, I just Google mapped Lake Bonavista Drive to UC. It's 23 minutes taking Crowchild or 25 minutes taking Deerfoot. You said that commute was over an hour, which wasn't close to true. You tripled the time for your post.
Lake Bonavista Drive to the Calgary Tower is 21 minutes. Big whoop.
Lake Bonavista Drive to a random business in the Foothills Industrial Park (where tens of thousands of Calgarians work) is 13 minutes.
You're suggesting LB is in the boondocks, but it's not.

Because my daughter goes to daycare in my building downtown? And if she comes with me on my commute then I can put in a 9-hour work day as required and she's only at daycare for 9 hours. Instead of dropping her in my community and having her at daycare for 10+ hours everyday.
But you're right Sliver. You convinced me. I called my realtor this morning, and I'm listing my house (which incidentally is 1.5 blocks from a great elementary school, but thanks for the tidbit about how important proximity to schools are), and moving to Lake Bonavista. And I'm pulling my daughter out of her daycare that she loves and enrolling her in Montessori. In Lake Bonavista. EVERYONE IN CALGARY SHOULD LIVE IN LAKE BONVISTA!!!!!!!!
I don't know how I made it this far in life before you came along and enlightened me to the superior, Lake Bonavista way. Thanks man.
