Take TX46 from Boerne to Seguin to avoid San Antonio. Or at least take Loop 1604 to avoid downtown.

Your first stop is going to be somewhere around San Antonio or maybe Seguin. That means you're coming through San Antonio around rush hour. Things are going to be pretty dicey through town on the main lanes. Paul's suggestion for TX46 makes a lot of sense. But beware of deer late in the day. Expect to not make as good time on TX46 as it is mostly two-lane.

That probably puts you in a good position to get through Houston about midday the second day thus avoiding their rush hour. Don't take I-10 through New Orleans, but take I-12 and reconnect on the other side of NOLA.

the next big trouble area is mobile's george wallace tunnel wear there are many of accident in this tunnel that goes under the mobile river. For some reason there is accident daily in this tunnel. If traffic is backed up on i 10 before the tunnel exit the freeway and take the bankhead tunnel to get across the river. Take highway 90/government street to the east through the heart of mobile. It is a residential and local business street so there are traffic lights and stop signs to contend with. Government street will take you to the “old tunnel”. The other bad spot is the bridge that leads onto the easton shore area on the other side of mobile bay that backs up in the afternoons and mornings. Many of people just take the causeway to get across mobile bay.
