Send Jeannie May to the Dinosaur
Tell Jeannie May that you have something to show her in front of the Dinosaur. She can be found either at the motel or at her house across the street.

Boone's second companion quest can be activated by exhausting his dialogue options. This includes talking about his deceased wife and his past in general. Talking to Manny Vargas in Novac and Sergeant Bitter-Root at Camp McCarran about Bitter Springs helps too.

Killing prominent figures within the Legion faction while travelling with Boone will also help trigger the quest. After that, you will have the option to convince him to return to Bitter Springs. He will turn down the idea at first, but will shortly reconsider after a few minutes of travelling, finally triggering the quest.
