San Antonio is quite hot and humid. You will want to go to the west to avoid humidity, such as Alpine or Fort Davis or the like. Look at rainfall averages for towns in West Texas at www.weather.com.
San Antonio has something like 33 inches of rain a year, but Alpine has only 17.75 or so inches of rain per year - the general area of far West Texas is closer to desert (although it's not) than the center of Texas. If you are willing to make short flight, look at www.southwest.com (the big discount airline headquartered in Dallas) and see where it flies from Austin...maybe Midland/Odessa (14 or so inches a year) might suit you...one problem with West Texas is that except for El Paso, there's not a lot of people there...at least the Panhandle (Midland/Odessa, Lubbock, Amarillo) has some industry and people while having much less humidity than central Texas...
