    10 hour break = food, shower, sleep. Not enough time for much else. Hubby and I run team so we don't even get a 10 hour stop.

    when i take a reset, which is rare, i like to read the local newspaper(s), get sense of what the town/ city / area is like to live in.
    Laundry, and detail truck cab. And if by chance i'm parked somewhere near a movie theater, catch a first run movie.

    About the same here. 10 hour break means get paperwork in order, shower, and eat. Sleep, pre-trip and hammer down for 11.
