Wow, maybe I should be rethinking my Aruba vacation in late september and do BA instead?
Depends if you want a beach/pack food vacation or city/restaurant vacation.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

San Antonio is supposed to be nice and you have the Ocean.

San Antonio is not near the ocean, Houston is.

Just another idea: Transfer 44K MR to ANA for 2 round trip tickets to Cancun, Use 40K SPG for 5 nights at the Westin Lagunamar Ocean Resort Villas (or cash and points for much better value). There is plenty to do there besides beaches. The only problem is there are no restaurants but you can get food from chabbad:  http://www.experiencekosher.com/


You can also do a combination Grand Canyon / Las Vegas.
