Should the Senate go on vacation for 2 years?


Assuming the Republicans win control of the Senate at the upcoming Georgia elections, it seems that there is little point in them staying in Washington for the next 2 years, as the House will be controlled by Democrats and the President will be a Democrat. If everything they propose is dead on arrival in the Senate, it seems like a waste of resources for the Senate to bother meeting at all. Should they just maintain pro forma sessions sufficient to block any recess appointments by President Biden while going on a 2-year long taxpayer funded vacation?
