Depending on your schedule...you could take US90 out of San Antonio to Seminole Canyon State Park, then to Marathon and 385 south into Big Bend, follow 170 along the river to Presidio, north on 67 to Fort Davis S.P., and on to I-10 by either 17 to Balmorhea S.P., or 118 to I-10.
You may also drop down south of I-10 before you get to San Antonio on US90 and visit the brewery at Shiner and then to Gonzales for a big helping of Texas history, a cool downtown, and historic homes.
edit add... always stop at Bucees.
Thanks for the great suggestions. We are always looking for new things to do when we travel. We plan to head towards I-10 by way of I-85 and I-65 through Georgia and eastern Alabama.
