Okay, Bob & everyone else who replied.  Thanks very much.  I'll run H-H-N-G, not bond N-G at the garage & will provide a nice, secure earth connection to the box and equipment ground.

As an aside, why is it that the instant a municipality adopts regulations (e.g., NEC) they don't become public domain (like any other laws)?  Seems to me unfair that we must follow these regulations but can't copy and distribute them freely.  Off-topic I know...
