Default 2003 with Power Steering Issues

I have a 2003 Dodge 1500 Ram with Hemi. On Sat. morning zero deg. and colder night before, I started up the truck and had no power steering. I decided to drive it thinking it would just warm up or something. It never did for the next 1/2 hour of hwy driving. I checked the fluid level and it showed no fluid on the dip stick. I then purchased some power steering fluid and filled it up. Truck drove fine for the rest of my trip (3 hrs). But when I got to my driveway I needed to back in a trailer (with left & right turns) and noticed a good size puddle in the street and a continous red line up my drive and another puddle where I stopped. The leaking is forming on the opposite end of the resevoir. I looked under the vehicle and could only notice the red fluid dripping off the flexible boot on the passenger side. Any thoughts? Thanks Jim
