Thanks for all the replies. After reading every ones responses, I got off my lazy butt and looked it up on a Yellowstone site.
7-day Passes
Entrance Pass for... Yellowstone National Park Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks
Private, non-commercial vehicle $30 $50
Motorcycle or Snowmobile* $25 $40
Individuals by foot, bicycle, ski, etc. $15 per person 16 and older $20 per person 16 and older
Non-commercial bus or vehicle with capacity of 16 people or more** $15 per person 16 and older $20 per person 16 and older
I'm not sure how much of the Tetons We will be going into so I have to do more research as to what is needed.
We are planning to run from Yellowstone down to Jackson, spend the night and back to Yellowstone the next day. This part of the trip affords us the least amount of time. The road (191) between the two looks to run Parallel to the Tetons. So I'm not sure I will need a pass for the Teton Part.

An easier way to do it is to just buy it when you next enter a national park after you turn 62. All I had to do was to show my drivers license and hand over the money. Maybe it's been changed since but that was how I did it eight years ago.

i found this page
https://www.nps.gov/yell/planyourvisit/fees.htm
seems i remember the annual pass closer to $90? Maybe they tax?
Whatever, that's what we did and came out ahead before we got home AND used it several times thru the year. Only Federal parks.

I think you'll find the Annual Pass will be an investment you won't regret. Just a couple of parks a year and you're ahead, plus supporting our national parks is something I feel is a good investment for my kids and grandkids. Wife and I (recently retired) are trying to see as many as we can before we have to stop traveling for good.
