So, Boone and Rex have been following me for some time now, and Boone is carrying quite a lot of valuables for me.
All of a sudden...when I loaded up my game today....they were not behind me. I see their markers on a random spot on the map (that I had not travelled to yet), and I don't see them when I get there.
Some kind of glitch, or am I missing something?

Sometimes followers glitch and teleport themselves to a random spot on the map. Have you tried fast travelling to somewhere you've been? Usually they will pop in like magic as soon as you arrive.
An alternate solution, which appears to work even if you've told them to wait, is to use the elevator in Vault 22 to go to the 5th level:
Occasionally they will glitch into an area where they die (and you're generally notified when this happens). If they're dead, the best you can do is console commands, assuming you're on the PC. This question has a list of the proper console commands required to bring them back.
5Ok, found my answer in the talk section of the fallout wiki. Seems that when I had entered a fight in the Thorn, they stopped following me, and then their position on the map became completely random.
