Hemiptera eggs
I'm not an expert, but those eggs look to me very much like the eggs of a squash bug (a type of true bug from the order Hemiptera). Squash bugs (of the genus Anasa)seem to be common garden "pests" throughout the US. This photograph of their eggs closely matches yours:

There is plenty of information about the squash bug available on the web. Some good info can be found here
and the closest bugguide equivalent of your shot that I could find can be viewed here
